To add the fractions 6/19, 7/8, and 2 5/8, we first need to convert the mixed number 2 5/8 to an improper fraction.
2 5/8 = (2 * 8 + 5)/8 = 16/8 + 5/8 = 21/8
Now, add the fractions:
6/19 + 7/8 + 21/8
To add these fractions, we need to find a common denominator. The least common multiple of 19, 8, and 8 is 152.
Therefore,
6/19 = (6 * 8)/152 = 48/1527/8 = 91/15221/8 = 189/152
Now, add these fractions:
48/152 + 91/152 + 189/152 = 328/152
Now, simplify the fraction:
328/152 = 164/76
Therefore, the sum of 6/19, 7/8, and 2 5/8 is 164/76.
Finally, subtract 4 6/19 from this result:
164/76 - 4 6/19
First, convert 4 to an improper fraction:
4 = 4/1
Now, subtract the fractions:
164/76 - 4 6/19 = 164/76 - 4 - 6/19
Find a common denominator of 76 and 19, which is 76:
164/76 - 304/76 - 24/76
Now, subtract:
(164 - 304 - 24)/76 = -164/76 = -82/38
Therefore, the result of the operation is -82/38 or -41/19.
To add the fractions 6/19, 7/8, and 2 5/8, we first need to convert the mixed number 2 5/8 to an improper fraction.
2 5/8 = (2 * 8 + 5)/8 = 16/8 + 5/8 = 21/8
Now, add the fractions:
6/19 + 7/8 + 21/8
To add these fractions, we need to find a common denominator. The least common multiple of 19, 8, and 8 is 152.
Therefore,
6/19 = (6 * 8)/152 = 48/152
7/8 = 91/152
21/8 = 189/152
Now, add these fractions:
48/152 + 91/152 + 189/152 = 328/152
Now, simplify the fraction:
328/152 = 164/76
Therefore, the sum of 6/19, 7/8, and 2 5/8 is 164/76.
Finally, subtract 4 6/19 from this result:
164/76 - 4 6/19
First, convert 4 to an improper fraction:
4 = 4/1
Now, subtract the fractions:
164/76 - 4 6/19 = 164/76 - 4 - 6/19
Find a common denominator of 76 and 19, which is 76:
164/76 - 304/76 - 24/76
Now, subtract:
(164 - 304 - 24)/76 = -164/76 = -82/38
Therefore, the result of the operation is -82/38 or -41/19.
